Phillies launch HD Radio multicast
(April 1, 2011) The Philadelphia Phillies and CBS RADIO’s WOGL are teaming up to launch the "Phillies 24/7", the first ever HD Radio multicast station exclusively dedicated to a Major League Baseball team. Phillies 24/7 will air continuously throughout the year and feature live play-by-play of every regular season Phillies game on-air at 98.1 WOGL HD4, plus game re-broadcasts the following morning at 9am. The channel will launch today when the Phillies take on the Houston Astros in their home opener (1:05pm).
CBS RADIO’s WPHT serves as the Phillies radio broadcast flagship, a position they’ve held since 2005 after previously holding that title from 1982-2001. Marc Rayfield, Senior Vice President of CBS RADIO Philadelphia said “We are thrilled to embark upon this new endeavor with the Phillies. There is an insatiable appetite for this team, and CBS RADIO’s HD platform allows us to use new technology to bring Phillies related content to their fans 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. And the best part is it’s free!” Read more at
